West Ham dismissed coach Nuno Espírito Santo just 13 games into their second-tier bid to reclaim a Premier League spot. The Portuguese manager, who previously led Wolverhampton, Tottenham, and Nottingham Forest in the top flight, was let go following a review of the team's poor start. West Ham, who were relegated from the Premier League last season, currently sit eighth in the 24-team Championship after two consecutive losses to Southampton and West Bromwich Albion.

The club announced that they would seek a new head coach to steer them back to the Premier League, with club legends Mark Noble among several candidates for the position.
